PREFACE  TO  TIHIIE  IRZEAVZDIETR,. 


This  Reader  contains  nearly  1500  different 
words.  The  lessons  are  graded  as  slowly,  as  the 
limited  space,  and  introduction  of  as  many  new 
words  as  possible,  would  allow.  The  lessons  are 
on  a variety  of  subjects,  aud  include  a great 
many  sentences  used  in  ordinary  conversation. 
Gospel  truths  have  been  introduced  as  far  as 
practicable.  The  Chinese  portion  is  in  the  Canton 
dialect,  which  is  the  spoken  language  of  the 
Chinese  in  America,  Australia,  and  the  Sandwich 
Islands.  The  object  of  using  this  dialect,  instead 
of  the  more  elegant  style  of  their  language, 
is  to  give  the  learner  the  meaning  of  the  English 
in  plain  and  simple  words,  such  as  he  himself 
would  use  in  expressing  the  same  thine.

The  sun  is  up.  It  is 
in  the  sky.  Now  it  is 
day.  The  sun  is  red. 
Why  is  the  sun  so  red  ? 
I can  not  tell.  The 
sun  has  not  yet  set. 
God  made  the  sun.

that  he  had  tru-ly  not 
got  an-gry  that  day. 

6.  So  his  fath-er  gave 
him  the  dol-lar  as  he 
said  he  would. 

7.  But  he  said  to  him, 
“My  son,  for  one  dol-lar 
you  can  do  right.  Can 
you  not  do  so  from  love 
to  God,  who  gives  you 
all  you  have  i ” 

8.  He  said  he  would 
try.  He  who  loves  God 
will  find  it  eas-i-er  to 
do  right.

THE  BOY  AND  THE  BIRD. 


1.  There  was  a man 
once,  who  kept  a bird 
in  his  house. 

2.  The  bird  was  a ver-y 
pret-ty  one  that  had 
been  taught  to  speak. 

3.  When  the  man  said, 
“Where  are  you?”  It 
would  say,  “Here  I am.” 

4.  There  was  a boy  who 
lived  near  this  man’s 
house,  and  oft-en  went 
to  see  him.

5.  He  was  very  much 
pleased  with  the . bird. 
He  loved  to  hear  it 
talk. 

6.  One  day,  when  the 
boy  went  to  see  it,  the 
man  was  not  at  home. 

7.  The  boy  saw  the 
bird,  and  thought  how 
eas-y  it  would  be  to 
take  it. 

8.  He  thought  no  one 
would  know  it,  and  it 
would  be  his  bird. 

9.  So  the  boy  took 
the  bird,  and  put  it 
in-to  his  pock-et.  He 
was  just  sncak-ing  a- 
way  when  the  man 
came  in, 

10.  The  man  thought 
he  would  please  this 
boy  by  mak-ing  the 
bird  talk. 

11. With-out  first  look- 
ing to  see  where  the 
bird  was,  the  man  said, 
_y  Where  are  you  ?’’

2.  You  ask  your  pa-

3.  When  they  give 
you  these,  you-  thank

for  their  kind-ness. 

4.  So  you  should  ask 
your  Fath-er  in  heav-en, 
for  all  those  things, 
which  he  a-lone  can 
give  you. 

5.  You  should  ask  him 
for  life,  and  health,  and 
strength,  and  help. 

6.  You  should  pray  to 
him  to  for-give  your 
sins,  and  to  keep  you 
from  all  sin. 

7.  You  should  thank 
him  for  all  his  good 
gifts  to  you,  and  put 
your  trust  in  God. 

8.  You  ought  to  give 
your  heart  to  Gcd,  for 
God  says,  “ My  son, 
give  me  thy  heart.”

THE  Q I 

1.  Un-der  a great  tree 
in  the  woods,  two  boys 
found  a fine,  large  nut. 
As  soon  as  they  saw  it, 
they  both  ran  to  get 
the  nut. 

2.  But  one  boy  got 
there  first,  and  picked 
it  up.  “It  is  mine,” 
says  the  oth-er,  “for  I 
was  the  first  to  see  it.'* 

3.  No,  it  is  mine,” 
says  the  first,  “for  I

once  be-gan  to  quar-rel 
a- bout  the  nut. 

4.  As  they  could  not 
a-gree  whose  it  should 
be,  they  called  an  old-er 
boy.  He  said,  “I  will 
set- tie  this  quar-rel.” 

5.  He  took  the  nut 
and  broke  it.  He  took 
out  the  ker-nel  that  was 
in  it. 

6.  He  broke  the  shell 
of  the  nut  in-to  two 
parts  as  near-ly  e-qual 
as  he  could. 

7.  “This  half  of  the 
shell,”  said  he,  “be- 
longs to  the  boy  who 
first  saw  the  nut. 

8.  “ And  this  half  be- 
longs to  the  boy  who 
picked  it  up. 

9.  “The  ker-nel  of  the 
nut  I shall  keep  as  my 
pay  for  set-tling  the

th at  he  had  done  very- 
wrong,  and  re-solv-ed 
to  go  home.  When  he 
was  yet  a long  way  off, 
bis  fatb-er  saw  him. 

2.  In  spite  of  hit' 
poor,  rag-ged  con-di- 
tion,  his  fath-er  knew 
him.  He  ran  and  fell 
on  his  neck  and  kissed 
him.  How  glad  the 
fath-er  was  to  see  his 
son  a-gain.  He  for-gave 
him  for  all  his  wrong 
do-ings.

him  to  the  house,  and 
said  to  one  of  his  ser-

4.  What  does  this 
stor-y  teach  us?  By  the 
fath-er  is  meant,  our 
Fath-er  in  heav-en.  As 
the  son  went  a-way  from 
home,  and  did  so  much 
that  was  wick-ed  ; so  we 
have  gone  a-way  from 
the  God  who  made  us, 
and  be-come  sin-ners. 

5.  As  that  fatb- 
treat-ed  his  son  kind-ly, 
when  he  come  back,  so 
if  we  re-pent  of  our 
sins,  and  come  back  to 
God,  he  will  treat  us 
kind-ly,  and  for-give  us 
all  our  sins. 

6.  If  we  for-sake  our 
sins,  God,  for  Je-sus 
sake,  will  for-give  our 
sins,  and  make  us  his 
child-ren.  If  you  come  ■ 
to  Je-sus  and  trust  in 
him,  he  will  save  you.

2.  To  de-cide  the 
mat-ter,  they  a-greed  to 
try  their  power  on  a 
trav-el-ler  go-ing  a-long 
the  road.  The  one 
which  could  make  him 
take  off  his  cloak,  was 
to  win  the  case. 

3.  The  wind  tried 
first.  He  be-gan  to 
blow  as  hard  as  he 
could.  But  the  hard-er 
he  blew,  the  tight-er  the 
man  wrap-ped  his  cloak 
a- round  him.  The  wind 
blew  till  he  was  tired, 
aud  then  gave  up.  It 
was  all  in  vain. 

4.  Then  came  the 
sun’s  turn.  He  shone 
with  all  his  might.  As 
it  grew  warm-er  and 
warm-er,  the  trav-el-ler 
o-pened  out  his  cloak. 
At  length  it  be-came 
so  hot  that  he  was  glad 
to  take  it  off  en-tire- 
ly.  So  the  sun  proved

THE  CATS  AND 

1.  A fa-ble  is  a sto-ry 
in  which  an-i-mals,  or 
oth-er  ob-jects,  are  sup- 
posed to  talk,  though 
they  nev-er  do  so.  Here 
is  the  fa-ble  of  the  cats 
and  the  monk-ey. 

2.  Two  hun-gry  cats, 
hav-ing  stol-en  some 
cheese,  could  not  a-gree 
how  to  di-vide  it.  So 
they  called  in  a monk-ey 
to  de-cide  the  case. 

3.  “ Let  me  see,”  says, 
the  monk-ey,  “ this  slice 
weighs  more  than  the 
oth-er.”  So  then,  he  bit 
off  a large  piece  in  or- 
der, as  he  said,  to  make 
them  bal-ance. 

4.  The  oth-er  scale 
was  now  too  heav-y. 
This  gave  the  up-right 
judge  a fine  ex-cuse  to 
take  a se-cond  mouth- 
ful - of  cheese.

5.  “Stop  ! stop  !”  cried 
the  two  cats,  “give  each 
of  us  our  share  of  the 
rest,  and  we  Avill  be 
con-tent.’’ 

6.  “ If  you  are  con- 
tent,'5 says  the  monk-ey, 
“jus-tice  is  not.  The 
law,  my  friends,  must 
have  its  course.”  So  he 
nib-blecl  first  one  piece, 
and  then  the  oth-er.

7.  The  poor  cats  saw 
that  their  cheese  was 
like-ly  to  be  all  eat-en 
up.  So  they  hum-bly 
beg-ged  the  judge  not 
to  trou-ble  him-self  any 
more. 

8.  The  judge  said, 
“not  so  fast,  my  friends, 
I be-seeck  you,  we  owe 
jus-tice  to  our-selves 
as  well  as  to  you.  What 
is  left  is  due  to  me  on

the  whole  of  it  in- to

THE  LOVE 

1.  “ God  is  love.”  We 
may  be  sure  of  this, 
for  the  Bi-ble  tells  us 
so ; and  the  Bi-ble  can- 
not lie. 

2.  The  four  sea-sons 
tell  us,  “God  is  love/’ 
for  God  gave  us  the 
sea-sons  He  ga~e  us 
spring  with  its  fresh, 
green  leaves. 

3.  God  gave  us  sum- 
mer with  its  flow-ers, 
au-tumn  with  its  corn 
and  fruit,  and  win- 
ter with  its  frost  and 
snow,  that  pu-ri-fy  the 
air,  and  pre-pare  the 
ground  to  be  more  fruit- 
ful. 

4.  The  heav-ens  tell 
us,  that  “God  is  love." 
The  sun,  moon  and 
stars,  light  our  world, 
and  the  clouds  give  us 
grate- ful  rain.

5.  The  birds  of  the 
air,  the  beasts  of  the 
field,  and  the  fish-es 
of  the  sea,  all  tell  us, 
that  “ God  is  love.” 

6.  God  has  giv-en  the 
birds  wings  to  fly  with, 
he  has  giv-en  the 
beasts  the  means  to 
pro-vide  food,  and  the 
fish  fins  with  which 
to  swim. 

7.  All  crea-tures  that 
breathe  de-clare,  that 
“God  is  love.”  Look  a- 
round  and  see  how  hap- 
py they  are  ? God  made 
them  to  en-joy  life. 

8.  If  God  were  not 
love,  he  would  not  love 
us,  who  are  sin-ners,  and 
nev-er  would  have  giv-en 
his  Son  to  die  for  us.

Sa-vior  of  men,  and 
there-fore,  we  know 
that  he  loves  us,  and

on  its  ax-is,  from  west 
to  east,  once  ev-er-y 
twen-ty  four  hours.  It 
al-so  goes  round  the  sun 
once  ev-er-y  year. 

3.  The  earth  turn- 
ing on  its  ax-is  caus-es 
day  and  night.  The  sun 
shines  on  one  half  of 
the  earth  at  a time. 
The  side  which  is  to- 
ward the  sun  has  day, 
and  the  op-po-site  side 
has  night. 

4.  If  the  earth  did 
not  turn  round,  the 
side  next  to  the  sun 
would  have  day  all  the 
time,  and  the  op-po-site 
side  night  all  the  time. 
But,  as  it  turns,  ev-er-y  | 
part  has  day  and  night 
by  turns.

THE  SUN  AND  MOON. 


1.  The  sun  is  a 
great  globe  or  ball. 
It  seems  like  a ball 
of  fire.  It  is  a great 
dis-tance  a-way  from  us, 
and  is  near-ly  a mil- 
lion and  a half  times 
larg-er  than  our  earth. 

2.  The  sun  gives  us 
light  and  heat.  We 
can  see  the  sun  by 
day,  but  not  by  night.

Why  can  we  not  see 
the  sun  in  the  night  ? 
Be -cause  the  earth  turns 
round  on  its  ax-is, 
and  at  night  we  are 
on  the  side  a-way 
from  the  sun. 

3.  The  sun  ris-es  in 
the  east  and  sets  in 
the  west.  The  sun  seems 
to  go  round  the  earth, 
but  it  does  not.  It  is 
the  earth  that  moves 
and  not  the  sun. 

4.  The  moon  is  al-so 
a globe  or  ball,  but  it 
is  not  so  large  as  the 
sun,  or  the  earth.  The 
moon  goes  a-round  the 
earth  once  in  ev-er-y 
twen-ty  nine  and  a 
half  days.  Thus  it  fol- 
lows the  earth  a-round 
the  sun. 

5.  The  moon  it-self 
has  no  light,  but  gets 
its  light  from  the  sun.

2.  Peo-ple  taste  with 
the  tongue  and  pal-ate,

Some  things  taste  sour,

rough  or  smooth,  dry  or 
damp,  warm  or  cool,  and 
sharp  or  blunt. 

4.  We  al-so  use  the 
word  feel-ing  to  speak 
of  the  mind.  If  we  are 
struck,  or  hurt  we  feel 
pain.  If  we  have  troub-

have  pleas-ure,  we  feel 
hap-py.

us  light. 

3.  Who  made  this  beau-ti-ful  world  ? God 
made  the  world.  He  said,  “ Let  there  be  light, 
and  there  was  light.” 

4.  God  made  the  air  we  breathe,  and  the  clouds 
that  give  us  rain.  He  made  the  wa-ter  that  fills 
the  o-ceaus,  riv-ers,  and  seas.  He  made  the  dry 
land  al-so. 

5.  He  made  the  grass,  the  pret-ty  flow-ers,

grow  up-on  the  land,  and  bear  the  beau-ti-ful 
fruit.

stars.

THE  LAME  DO  Go 

1.  One  day  a man  went  to  take  a walk  in 
the  town.  On  his  way  home,  he  saw  a lit-tle 
dog  which  had  hurt  his  leg. 

2.  The  poor  dog  was  so  lame,  that  he  could 
not  lift  his  foot  with-out  great  pain.  This  kind 
man  saw  there  was  no  one  to  take  pit-y 
on  the  poor  dog. 

3.  So  he  took  him  in  his  arms,  car-ried 
him  home,  and  bound  up  his  leg.  He  fed 
him,  and  kept  him  for  two  days. 

4.  He  then  sent  the  dog  out  of  his  house, 
to  his  old  home.  As  it  was  not  his  own  dog, 
he  had  no  right  to  keep  him. 

5.  But,  each  day,  the  dog  came  back  for 
this  kind  man  to  dress  his  leg.  This  the  dog 
did,  till  he  be-came  quite  well. 

6.  In  a few  weeks,  he  came  back,  and 
brought  with  him  a dog  that  was  lame.  The 
dog  that  had  been  lame,  first  gave  the  man 
a look,  and  then  the  lame  dog  a look. 

7.  He  seemed  to  say,  “ You  made  my  lame 
leg  well,  and  now  I wish  you  to  do  the 
same  for  this  poor  dog. 

8.  The  kind  man  took  care  of  this  dog  al-so. 

O 

He  kept  him  in  his  house  till  he  was  well, 
and  could  go  home.

A FOX  STORY. 

1.  The  fox  is  very  cun-ning.  When  any  one 
is  very  cun-ning,  we  say,  “he  is  as  cun-ning 
as  a fox.  I will  tell  you  a story  about  the 
cun-ning  of  the  fox. 

2.  Some  dogs  were  once  in  chase  of  a fox. 

They  came  very  near  him,  and  it  seemed  as 

though  they  would  catch  him.  There  was  no 
hole,  or  oth-er  place,  for  the  fox  to  hide  in. 

3.  What  could  the  fox  do?  This  is  what 
the  fox  did.  There  was  a low  stone  wall  not 
far  oft.  and  the  fox  ran  to-ward  it  as  fast  as 
he  could  go.  But  near-er  and  near-er  came  the 
dogs. 

4.  When  the  fox  had  got  to  the  wall,  they 

were  close  to  him.  The  fox  made  a jump. 


ENGLISH  AND  CHINESE  HEADER.

and  went  o-ver.  But  as  soon  as  he  was  on  the 
oth-er  side  he  crept  to  the  wall,  and  lay  down 
close  to  it. 

5.  The  dogs,  in  their  haste,  went  o-ver  both 

wall  and  fox  at  a jump,  and  ran  straight  on. 
They  were  going  so  fast  that  they  could  not 

stop,  and  they  did  not  see  where  the  fox 

had  hid. 

6.  As  soon  as  the  dogs  were  o-ver,  the  fox, 

quick  as  a flash,  made  a leap  back  over 
the  wall,  and  was  soon  out  of  sight.  On 

went  the  dogs,  but  they  never,  saw  the  fox 

again. 

7.  Was  not  that  a cun-ning  fox  ? He  knew 

how  to  cheat  the  dogs,  and  he  saved  his 

life  by  it.

THE  BEST  REVENGE: 

1.  Two  men  once  lived  in  the  south  of  Af-ri-ca. 
They  had  a quar-rel,  and  be-came  bit-ter  en-e- 
mies  to  each  other. 

2.  Af-ter  a- while,  one  of  them  met  a lit-tle 
girl,  which  be-longed  to  his  en-e-my.  It  was  in 
the  woods,  at  some  dis-tauce  from  her  fath-er’s 
house. 

3.  He  seized  her,  and  cut  off  both  of  her 
hands.  Then  he  said,  “ I have  had  my  re-vengc,” 
and  sent  her  home  scream-ing,  with  her  bleed- 
ing wrists. 

4.  Years  passed  a- way.  The  lit-tle  girl  had 

grown  up  to  be  al-most  a young  wo-man.  One 
day  a poor,  old,  gray-head-ed  man  came  to 
her  fath-er’s  door,  and  asked  for  some-tning 
to  eat. 

5.  The  girl  knew  him  at  once  as  the  cru-el 
man,  who  had  cut  off  her  hands.  She  went 
into  the  house,  and  cr-dered  the  ser-vant  to 
give  him  some  bread  and  milk. 

6 When  he  had  fin-ished  eat-ing,  she  then 
un-cov-ered  her  wrists.  Hold-ing  their,  up,  she 
said,  “I  have  haci  my  re-'enge.  Thus  she 

re  peat-ed  the  very  won  Is  he  had  used, 

7.  Why  did  this  girl  act  in  this  way  ? Be- 
cause, in  the  mean-tune,  she  had  heard  the 


ENGLISH  AND  CHINESE  READER.

gos-pel  of  Je-sus,  and  had  be-came  a Christ- 
ian. She  had  learned  what  the  Bi-ble  says, 

“ If  thine  en-e-my  hun-ger  feed  him  ; if  he 
thirst,  give  him  drink.” 

8.  This  is  the  best  kind  of  re-venge.  You 
should  not  re- turn  e-vil  for  e-vil.  You  should 
re-turn  good  for  e-vil.  The  Bi-ble  says.  “0- 
ver-come  e-vil  with  good.”

ENGLISH  AND  CHINESE  READER. 


to  wake  in  the  morn-ing,  as  ear-ly  as  he  wished 
So  he  brought  an  a alarm-clock. 

2.  The  own-er  of  these  clocks  can  make  them 
strike,  with  a loud  noise,  at  any  hour  that 
he  pleas-es.  The  man  placed  this  clock  at  the 
head  of  his  bed.  At  the  right  time  it  wToke 
him  up. 

3.  He  a-rose  at  once.  This  he  did  for  sev- 

er-al  weeks.  The  clock  did  its  du-tv  faith-fnl- 

%/ 

ly,  and  was  plain-ly  heard  so  long  as  it 
was  o-bey-ed. 

4.  But,  af-ter  a time,  the  man  grew  tired 
of  ear-ly  ris-ing.  When  he  was  waked  by  the 
noise,  he  on-ly  turned  over,  and  went  to 
sleep  again. 

5.  In  a few  days,  the  clock  lost  its  pow- 
er to  wake  him.  It  spoke  just  the  same  as 
ev-er ; but  he  did  not  hear  it,  be-cause  he 
was  in  the  hab-it  of  not  o-bey-ing  it 

6.  The  clock  was  of  no  use.  He  might  as 
well  be  with-out  one.  So  he  re-solved,  that 
when  he  heard  the  sound,  he  would  jump  up 
right  a- way, 

7.  Just  so  it  is  with  con-science.  It  is  God’s 
voice  in  the  heart.  It  tells  us  what  is  wrong, 
and  what  is  right.  If  we  o-bey  its  voice, 
then  we  shall  al-ways  hear  con-science  when  T 
speaks  in  the  heart

8.  But  if  we  do  not  lis-ten  to  its  voice,  con- 
science will  lose  its  pow-er.  It  we  get  iu-to  the 
hab-it  of  not  heed-ing  when  it  warns  us,  then,  by- 
and-by  we  shall  cease  to  hear  it.

THE  CRUEL  BOY  PUNISHED. 

1.  An  i-dle  boy  was  one  day  sit-ting  on 
the  steps  of  a door.  He  had  a stick  in  one 
hand,  and  a piece  of  bread  and  but-ter  in  the 
oth-er. 

2.  As  he  was  eat-ing,  he  saw  a clog  ly-ing 
near,  and  called  him.  The  clog  hear-ing  him- 
self kind-ly  spok-en  to,  wag-ged  his  tail  and 
came  up. 


124  ENGLISH  AND  CHINESE  READER. 


3.  The  boy  held  out  his  piece  of  bread,  and 
as  the  dog  was  a-bout  lo  take  it,  the  naugh-ty 
fel-low  struck  him  on  the  nose  with  the  stick. 
The  dog  howled,  and  ran  a-way  as  fast  as  he 
could. 

4.  The  cru-el  boy  laughed  heart-i-ly  at  the 
trick  he  had  played.  At  this  mo-ment,  a man 
on  the  oth-er  side  of  the  street,  who  had  seen 
him,  called  the  boy. 

5.  Show-ing  him  a half  dol-lar,  he  asked  the 
boy  if  he  would  like  to  have  it.  “ Yes,”  said  the 
boy,  “to  be  sure  I would.”  “Come  and  get  it, 
then,”  said  the  man. 

6.  The  boy  ran  to  him,  and  stretched  out  his 
hand  for  the  mon-ey.  Then  the  man  gave  him 
a rap  on  the  hand  with  his  cane.  The  boy  roared 
\v  i tli  pain. 

7.  “Why  did  you  do  that?”  said  the  boy.  “I 
did  not  hurt  you,  or  ask  you  for  mon-ey.”  V Why 
did  you  strike  the  poor  dog  just  now  ?”  said 
the  man.  “ Had  he  hurt  you,  or  asked  you  for 
bread?  I have  served  you  just  as  you  served 
him.” 

8.  The  bad  boy  hung  his  head,  and  felt  very 
much  a-shamed.  If  you  treat  oth-ers  bad-ly,  they 
are  apt  to  treat  you  bad-ly.  Be  kind  to  oth-ers, 
and  they  will  be  kind  to  you.

THE  WHALE. 

1.  The  whale  is  a very  large  an-i-mal.  There 
is  no  fish  or  beast,  so  large  as  a whale.  They 
have  a large  mouth,  but  so  small  a throat  that 
they  can’t  eat  large  fish. 

2.  Their  tongue  is  very  fat,  and  yields  a 
great  deal  of  oil.  Their  eyes  are  small,  and 
have  lids  to  them.  The  com-mon  whale  is  from 
for-ty  to  six-ty  feet  long. 

3.  Whales  are  very  fond  of  their  young.  If 
they  are  in  dan-ger,  the  whale  takes  them  on 
her  back,  and  puts  up  her  fins  so  that  they 
cannot  fall  off. 

4.  The  have  a large  and  strong  tail,  which 
helps  them  to  swim.  When  they  are  at  play, 
Dr  in  a rage  from  pain,  they  lash  the  sea  into 
a foam  with  their  tail.

ENGLISH  AND  CHINESE  READER. 


5.  Ships  are  sent  out  from  some  of  our  ports 
to  take  whales,  for  the  sake  of  the  oil  they  yield. 
These  ships  are  some-times  gone  two  or  three 
years.  They  kill  the  whale  with  a spear  which 
they  throw  at  it. 

6.  When  the  whale  is  struck  it  dives  down 
in-to  the  sea,  far  out  of  sight ; but  it  soon  comes 
up  to  the  top  for  want  of  air.  The  men  are  on 
the  watch  for  this. 

7.  As  soon  as  they  see  it  rise,  they  strike  it 
with  their  spears  till  it  dies.  When  it  is  dead 
ihey  cut  it  up,  and  put  the  oil  which  it  yields 
in-to  casks.  If  the  men  find  man-y  whales, 
they  come  back  with  so  much  oil,  as  to  feel 
quite  rich.

And  lips  that  we  might  tell 
How  great  is  God  Al-might-y, 
He  do-eth  all  things  well.

at  noon,  will  I pray  and  cry  a-loud ; and  he

1.  God  so  loved  the  world,  that  he  gave  hia 
only  be-got-ten  Son,  that  who-so-ev-er  be-liev- 
eth  in  him  should  not  per-ish,  but  have  ev-

2.  Be-lieve  on  the  Lord  Je-sus  Christ,  and 

thou  shalt  be  saved. 

3.  This  is  a faith-ful  say-ing  and  worth-y 
of  all  ac-cep-ta-tion,  that  Christ  Je-sus  came 
into  the  world  to  save  sin-ners. 

4.  He  that  be-liev-eth  and  is  bap-tized  shall 
be  saved  ; but  he  that  be-liev-eth  not  shall 
be  damned. 

5.  Je-sus  said,  Come  unto  me,  all  ye  that 

la-bor  and  are  heav-y  la-den,  and  I will  give 

you  rest. 

6.  We  be-lieve  and  are  sure  that  thou  art  that 

Christ,  the  Son  of  the  liv-ing  God. 

7.  Je-sus  said,  I am  the  way,  the  truth,  and 
the  life. 

8.  Je-sus  said,  What-so-ev-er  ye  shall  ask  the 

Fath-er  in  my  name,  he  will  give  it  you.

THE  LORD’S  PRAYER. 

Our  Fa-ther,  which  art  in  heav-en,  hal-lowed 
be  thy  name.  Thy  king-dom  come.  Thy  will 
be  clone  on  earth  as  it  is  in  heav-en.  Give  us 
this  day  our  dai-ly  bread.  And  for-give  us  our 
debts  as  we  for-give  our  debt-ors.  And  lead  us 
not  in-to  temp-ta-tion,  but  de-liv-er  us  from  e-vil. 
For  thine  is  the  king-dom,  and  the  pow-er,  and 
the  glo-ry  for  ev-er.  A-raen.

THE  CREED. 


I be-lieve  in  God  the  Fa-ther  . Al-migh-ty, 
Ma-ker  of  heav-en  and  earth;  and  in  Je-sus 
Christ,  his  on-ly  Son,  our  Lord,  who  was  con- 
ceived b}'  the  Holy  Ghost,  born  of  the  vir-gin 
Ma-ry ; suf-fered  un-der  Pon-tius  Pi-late,  was 
cru-ci-fied,  dead  and  bur-ied  ; he  de-scend-ed  in-to 
hell;  the  third  day  he  rose  from  the  dead;  he 
as-cend-ed  in-to  heav-en,  and  sit-teth  on  the  right 
hand  of  God  the  Fath-er  Al-migh-ty  ; from  thence 
he  shall  come  to  judge  the  quick  and  the  dead. 

I be-lieve  in  the  Ho-ly  Ghost ; the  ho-ly 
cath-o-lic  church ; the  com-mun-ion  of  saints ; 
the  for-give-ness  of  sins ; the  res-ur-rec-tion  of 
the  bod-y  ; and  life  ev-er-last-ing.  A-men.
